Brixton is pleased to announce the appointment of Ruud Vermey as General Manager of Brixton Europe. Vermey will be based out of the company’s new European headquarters in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and is a key addition as Brixton continues building the brand in this region.
Vermey has more than two decades of experience in the European market, including senior roles with Vans Europe and Sole Technology, where he held the position of European Product Director.
